A place for those that got both Autism and ADHD, those confirmed as one and are suspecting they got the other as well, and also everyone who is neither and just genuinely curious.

Since the combo comes with its own set of challenges, this shall be a place to ask for advice, vent, infodump about special interests and/or just vibe and meme.

Please be respectful. General niceness guidelines apply - formal rules will be added later if necessary.

In regards to medication and medical advice: Please take under consideration that this is only an online support community. Offered advice is always an expression of individual opinions or experiences and shall never be taken as substitute for a professional in-person assessment!

This is a SFW community. Sensitive topics are allowed, but must be properly labeled.

I find it so hard to find anyone compatible. I’m basically slowing down my dating efforts because it just makes me miserable. Are there any success stories out there? Common personality types that pair surprisingly well? Anything?

Personally speaking, I feel like I don't judge someone else the way I judge myself because I don't know the full extent of what they are going through but I have access to all of my thoughts, memories, and every action I did or didn't take. This lowers the possibility of there being a hidden, valid reason for actions or thoughts that I judge myself for compared to others.

This isn't meant to say that MisterMcBolt is right about their self-judgement. Just wanted to point out another possible reason for judging others differently from yourself.
